nice.

i liked the music ^^ and you fixed his smoking habit...which seems to have cleared his breathing problems lol.
anyway it was quite good. looks like you put a lot of time into it. clasic anime stuff.
anyway. the drawing could be beter. not mutch but it could be.
and a few more voice actors would be nice.
other than that it would get 10/5 out of ten/five.
im afraid you have to settle for 8/4 for now.
cant wait for the next episode.
^^

So you survived the blam! Nice.

I can see this series going places with some time and a lot of practice at Flash. You have a good sense of visual cutting to heighten the tension as well as the minimalist style of anime. As for audio and graphics.... Well, it needs a lot of work. The graphics are serviceable but could be better and more unique (and run at a better frame rate), more sound effects and music would add to the scenes (get some people to voiceact for you as well while you're at it) and please do at least a SMIDGEN of reading on samurai and their role in the Japanese feudal caste system. I think it may help put some things into context and give you fresh ideas. So far, all the ideas I've seen you put into this seem to have come straight from video games/anime/comic books/movies/all of the above. Get yourself some originality and read some history/culture books! And rip those off instead! :-P

I understand the part of the voice actors and stuff. Frankly Im hard of hearing so it proves dificulty for me so yeah. Yeah this whole samurai thing was an idea, dont think Im going to continue it anymore lol I never had a good story so I cant really get anything out of it.
